Use a Manual Boost Controller and boost gauge. Make sure you know what you are doing.

Daniel,

You should join the SoCal DSM list on yahoogroups. Just increasing the boost w/out knowing anything can blow your motor!

Hey i own a 99 spyder and i almost blew my engine to hell raising the boost, and i work on cars as my hobby! Just take it into an import tuner shop, or even the mitsubishi dealer might do it ? But unless you know exactly what youre doing or have the money to buy a new engine when you blow the one you have now, dont do it manually, ask for some advice.

 

You should only raise the boost 1 psi at a time until you get the correct level. You should also only be doing this if you have a boost gauge and a data logger, and a bit of experience using both.
Honestly I feel I am better off doing some things myself as compared to an import tuner shop or especially a Mitsubishi dealership. Most dealerships don't know jack (other than the local Subaru one...the service manager is an avid racer).


Hey smokin, do you have the Hahn turbo kit on your eclipse GS? You mentioned you had boost. I only remember seeing a very few GST spyders. Its a nice car, just wish the sypers werent so damn heavy (not that I can talk much about heavy cars).

 

Nah i decided not to go with a Hahn turbo kit. I have heard a bit of rumors about the company so i decided to stay away. I have a GReddy T3/T40E turbo kit. The GReddy worked well in my civic so i decided to hook up the eclipse. I also have a TiAL waste gate, if anyone cares. As far as the weight, yeah it is a bit heavy. But hey, all you need is a JDM 4G63 engine swap and you'll be all set!
